Postnatal
Massage
A therapeutic and tailored treatment for both new and established mums. Whilst my postnatal massage is the same at my pregnancy massage, your body is different and therefore the benefits e.g. as your organs settle in to their pre pregnancy positions I work on loosening the muscles inbetween your ribs and encouraging your rib cage to [opp of expand/come back in], I work on your hips and lower back to loosen and encourage your pelvis back in to its pre pregnancy position etc. Each stroke of the postnatal massage is to support your body and mind in settling down back in to your pre pregnancy state and to help with any aches and pains, exhaustion etc. that you may be experiencing.
​
This is session is more than just a Postnatal Massage. Prior to your first appointment you will receive tailored advice and support during a telephone consultation and at the start of each session thereafter when we have a catch up. For example, this can include advice and demonstrations on posture whilst feeding your baby, caesarean scar advice, recommendations to sleep or feeding consultants if needed, how to support your body when laying down to aid in its recovery etc.
​
This is a full or upper body massage which takes place in a side-lying position. You are fully supported with pillows. Treatments take 60 minutes for an upper body massage and 90 minutes for a full body massage. A free 20-30 minute telephone consultation is included before your first session.
